Extranodal Hodgkin Disease Presenting with Gluteal Mass and Hypercalcemia
Abstract
We wish to report the case of a 68-year-old male who presented with a gluteal mass and hypercalcemia. Although gluteal masses have been described in advanced Hodgkin disease,1 in our patient, the gluteal mass was the presenting sign. Similarly, although hypercalcemia may develop during the course of lung cancer, multiple myeloma, breast cancer and non-Hodgkin lymphoma, it is less frequent in Hodgkin disease.2This content is limited to qualifying members.
